Early morning light over Pokhara slides across the road as a shared jeep climbs toward Sirubari, the Gurung village that keeps its rhythms close to the land. By mid-morning guests are met with drums and a welcome dance, smoke from cooking fires curling like a friendly invitation. The village perches on a low ridge with wide views of terraced fields and, on clear days, the snow-bright line of the Annapurnas daring you to look higher.
